Tuesday Trigger - Rustic Fall

I jumped on this week's Tuesday Trigger as a chance to add to the Mommy Dearest Thanksgiving collection. She loved it! It is one of my favorites, too, ... if I do say so myself. =)

Here is my card based on this Trigger photo:

I used PTI Kraft cardstock for my base, dark brown burlap from Michael's, and a Rustic White cardstock strip stamped with leaves from the Lawn Fawn "Harvest Season" stamp set. I stamped and trimmed a couple of the leaves from some Autumn Terracotta patterned paper and layered them on top with foam tape. I tied a string pulled from the burlap at the top of the strip, added some sequins, and a circle rub-on from my CTMH "Mischief" goodies. The circle is also layered with foam tape over a piece of brown shimmer tape, trimmed on the ends for a banner. This one came together easily and was fun to make.

About Me

I am a recently reformed full-time Accountant/Financial Analyst, now a full-time Mom/part-time PaperCrafter. This means I'm usually puttering around the house running after the kids, husband or 3 cats, and cleaning up after all of the above.
I've been married to my college sweetheart for 17 yrs. We have two little piglets (ages 9 and 11) whom we are quite fond of (most of the time).
Occasionally, I sneak off to my crafty space to create and hide from the mayhem. I love to peruse PaperCrafts Magazines, fellow addicts' blogs and Pinterest for inspiration any chance I get. I am shamefully addicted to all things associated with this hobby!
